Buy new clothes: You've taken two meds that can cause you to lose weight. Plus you've increased your excercise. See your doctor to make sure your not losing too much weight too fast.

Are clothes: too small? Mean you gained weight? If weight gain consider inadequate thyroid replacement, add healthy frequent small meals with reduced carbs and calories.Consider increasing resistance excercise. If weight gain persist see a Bariatrician
